Our Family ~ Nov 2017

Saturday, December 15, 2012

We stopped in for a visit with Jessica and her family! They spoiled the kids as well!

Jessica got the girls an ice cream maker!

Grandpa MAX giving snuggles!

Great Grandparents Phil and Mary-Jo!

Jessica ( g's beautiful birthmom) & gpa Max ( her dad)

Aunt Morgan opening G's gifts for him!( yep good looks run in this family!)

Opening more gifts!

Gav loved his playmat from Jessica! I know this next baby will get some use out of it as well!

So, as you can see - Open adoption for us WORKS wonderfully! I know it may not for every situation but, in ours it's perfect harmony ( most of the time)!

You can never have too many people that love your kids, your family, you! As long as the people

are healthy ( mentally, emotionally etc.) than i say bring it on! And i do remind the birth families that my KIDS don't NEED lots of presents and one is plenty ( but it never seems to go that way)

We have been blessed and we wouldn't change it for the world! I can't wait for this next baby to get here so Gavin has a sibling close in age and I know this Christmas will be an eventful one filled with love from near and far! Love to you all!

Don't miss this great Home SHOW! Come grab so sweet swag for the home, babies, yourself, your kitchen your mom, dad and well everyone! 9 FREE giveaways and appetizers will be there so, don't miss your chance to WIN some fabulous products!

On a personal note, i had a bit of scare yesterday as i overdid it taking a 4.25 mile walk and i had false labor contractions for 2.5 hours. ALL is well and we are all fine. Slowing down is inevitable! I need at least 1.5-2.5 weeks in order to not worry. I'm 36.5 weeks currently and am doing fine amidst round ligament pains, cramps and reflux- It's all good and well worth it!

seems like I'm always playing this game now. If it's not in one part of my life- it's another! So, for instance, my baby prep is near complete, Christmas presents and shopping is at 85% AND ITS NOT EVEN THANKSGIVING! But, i am back logged with laundry, photo editing and sewing projects. I'm 34 weeks+ and my energy is wearing thin! SO, I'm going to try and play catch up before Christmas and this baby gets here!
Here's a few of the newest shots of my Kiddos! I took these in Grandma Betty's Back yard on Halloween.

hey everyone...
so, yeah, I'm getting huge- I'm 30 weeks now and i decided that being a pumpkin for Halloween is my best bet! I bought an orange maternity shirt and am going to tape some black felt cut outs as the face on my belly! Maybe it should be a Jack or Jill o-lantern:)? I love not finding out the gender too! I'm having the funnest time losing sleep and having reflux but, i am really not doing half bad!

The kids are all healthy and good and we have parent teacher conferences today for the girls! Hope those go well!
I'm also having a little FB sale of some cute boutique baby items and some adoption onesies as well. Just click over here and look under the CC Baby Sale albums- post on what you like with your email and we will get it sent out to you after payment!

So much more on the sight and if we arent friend- request it! with a note( you are here to shop:)

We hope this blog gives you and idea of who we are and some insight to ?'s you might have. Our family is missing someone and we are always open to welcome another child/ren into our family and all the wonderful people they come with , through adoption but, know that there are so many wonderful and deserving couples who are waiting as well. Our desire is to know that God's plan is being fulfilled and that ALL our children make it to our family- no matter how they come here. We love Open Adoption and We will see where God takes our growing family and are optimistic for the future. Thanks for taking the time to read our blog and consider our family. We are praying & waiting for not just any child/ren but, for the RIGHT ones to come into our lives!
